Comments about RiverMaps Green & Yampa in Dinosaur National Monument Guide Book:
This river guidebook is easy to use, clearly delivers pertinent information for running the river, provides important details such as where to scout from, what to expect in average water level, directions of how to run each rapid, information about campsites, is waterproof, it also has some great information about the Monument's plants, rock formations and wildlife. I like the fact that the Yampa River and the Green River are in the same guidebook.
